Part Five - Kodiak, Our New Home





We took one more headache of a ferry-ride, but luckily much shorter, from Homer to our new hometown.  Since arriving in Kodiak, we have been immersing ourselves in base-life.  I am being more social than I ever have, in hopes of making some strong connections here.  We are staying at the guesthouse on base, while our home on base is being renovated.  We are hoping to move in by the end of this upcoming week.  John had his first flight at work this week, in which he was amazed how the base is surrounded by secluded wilderness.  Lydia has returned from her new preschool with seaglass found on the beach and sad stories about falling in the wet grass and getting her pants all wet.  I enjoy my car-rides into town to take Lydia to and from preschool, as the scenery is lovely and bald eagles are everywhere.  I think Kodiak has all the elements to become a great home for us.  Last weekend, we took a car-trip into the mountains so the kids could sled and build a big snowmen.  They loved it.  Megan
